HOME FROM THE SOUTH.
A Wall Street Man Who Believes
in Southern Progress.
From, tie Ne,o YORK Times.

FROM tie Ne1D YORK Itfnes'
MIR. John G. Moore, OF the Stock Ex-
change firm of Moore g. Schley. has Just
returned from tour through the SOUTH
He is closely connected with important
business interests IN the Southern States,
and is a director in leading Southern rail-
way companies, and though primarily
the trip was for rest aud recreation, his
| active eye took in good many Things
that have interest to Northern investors.
| Mr.. Moore was greeted by cro"ds Oh
/ friends at the Windsor Hotel yesterday,
and had to answer scores OF questions
relative to what had come under MS no.
tice during his trip.
! 1t was evident from the replies he gave
to the representative men who sought his
attention that he returns great bull ON
| the South. This, though, is no new thing
| with MIR. Moore. He was one OF the
| earliest believers In the new south, ana
! for years has been pointing out Southern
! progress and progressiveness ana the
| ABUNDANT opportunities for money max
Ing that tins new South offers. His latest
trip through Dixie has only served tn en-
phasize and prove true old convictions.
| The representative southern man, as
Dir. Moore mad the chance to observe him,
is at work, having clear purpose ana
determined upon prosperity. The young
men OF the South, says MIR. Moore, are de-
voted TO go-ahead ways, industrious and
not bothering with political prejudices.
Southern railroads show great improve
ments in their physical conditions within
the last few years, and Mi. Moore AYERS
that he made his journeys with quite as
much comfort as equally long trips could
| be made over average Northern roads.
Many Wall street men who talked yes
terday With Mr.. Moore got new ideas OF
the real condition of southern affairs.
The new South has good fortune in gain
ing such a champion.

NOT DOWN ON THE LIST.
The Georgia Central and the Penn
syivania Boycott.

SytVania BOycOtt.
A telegram was received yesterday by
Maj. G. A. W hItehead, General Passen
ger Agent OF the Central railroad, from
K. A. Ford, General Passenger Agent of
the Pennsylvania railroad, stating that
The Central OF Georgia is not included in
the Pennsylyania's boycOtted list. The
mistake seems to have been the fault of
the Pennsy lvania Company.
Inc position of the Central of Georgia
in regard 70 commissions to agents 10
we'll known to railroad men and comedies
exactly with the Pennsylvania CentraPs
position. Both lines have been opposed
to The system all along, tor it has devel-
oped into nothing less than blackmail.
a Chicago agent, tor instance, could sell
tickets to certain points over two or three
different routes. One company would
offer him 81 say on every ticket he would
sell over It's line. The opposition COM
pany would soon discover that the bulk
OF the PASSENGER traffic was going over
the other route.
The opposition company would have to
do something to get business back, and
would offer ''cap" commission of 81 so
to the agent. OF course the agent would
send business over the line which bid the
highest, and he would quietly pocket the
commission. Some of them are said to
have made as high as 81 200 per month
out of their commissions, which they
could raise until the railroads got little
profit out of the business which they
handled,

An enthusiastic meeting was held in
the court house at Elberton Wednesday
in the interest of the Georgia, Carolina
and Northern road. A delegation of thir-
teen was appointed to attend the meeting
to be held In Athens yesterday. Over
$1,000 in subscriptions was raised In
short time, with good prospect for more.
The surveyors of the road have run sew
eral lines IN the nelghborhoOd of the
town, two of which run tarOugh the cor
porate limits. Elberton is nearly directly
on an air line from Athens to Abbeville,
and the only really practical route for
the road is through the town. Her people
stand ready to do their fun share toward
the enterprise, and Will readily subscribe
as much as any other place on the line in
proportion TO her wealth.

Keep KoOi.

People generally, when an assignment
is business is announced, flock to such
places under the impression that the stock
will be almost given away, but our adj.
vice is, keep cool head. Such old stock
as those places offer we are glad TO sell at
any time for halt OF cost. Good, saeable
stuck the creditors will look out TO get
value for. The secret OF failure in bust
ness (and the clothing business, espe-
cially }, is that the party has not cleared
out his accumulation of OLD stock as he
went along, holding them at the price or
fresh goods; in the end there Is nothing
but old stock, ana those are palmed OF on
the public at asslgnee's sales and are
dear at any price.
We advise all TO have look at the
fresh stock OF clothing "The Famous
can show you, of our own manufacture,
at especially low prices, then if we cam
not satisfy you there will be nothing LETT
for you to do but TO buy old stock at as.
slgnee's sales. Look az the clothing OF
the Famous New York Clothing House
before buying.

PUT OFF FOR A WHILE.
The Suspension of the "Long and
Short Haul" Clause.


The best news that the railroad officials
had yesterday was the telegram in the
MORNING NEWS stating that the "long
and short haul" clause was suspended.
Although the suspension is at best but
temporary, yet it pute of for a while at
least the evil day when new rates are 10
be put ia force, ana IL gives the roads
little more time 10 prepare. Messrs. Kea-
gan and Cullom are in Il fair way TO be-
come the most thoroughly unpopular men
10 ths section of the republic. When
the railroads throughout the country
withdrew interstate rates on freight,
business men were embarrassed.
A prominent lumber man declared last
night that the new law will paralyZe his
business II rates for long hauls are
made up by adding together tue local
rates within the States through which
shipments pass. "To Illustrate" said
he, "our firm has contract TO supply a
large amount OF lumber at point IN Nir-
glna. W. had through rate which al
lowed us TO ship by rail at moderate ex-
pense. AS soon, though, as the through
rate was withdrawn, we had to load YES
sells tor Newport News and thence ship
the lumber by rail through Virginia to
the point of destination. That Is much
slower, and when the extra unloading
and loading are taken into consideration,
Is about a. costly.
"The railroads have been helping the
lumber interests Of this State and were
just beginning to reap some profit from
the business. Now they will be cut off
from that. Sixty carloads of lum Der were
shipped each week last month from Geor-
gia for one month a few years back"
How serious the law will effect the
State cannot be told until it has been in
operation for Il while, but while 1t may
satisfy some statesmen's ideas OF abstract
principles OF justice 1t is almost sure 10
hurt general business quite as much as
IL will the tailrnada.
